Pledge your member againat it. That is the only assurance you will have that it is dead If sufficient unpledged members are re- turned to parlianieut it will bo passed as sure as fate. It is on this policy that the government is befort the country, and do not lose sight of this Ssct. Sir Cliarlcs has got his cabinet into shape. Caron, Ouimetand Daly of the late cabinet are oat, and the new membcis arc : Sir CHARLES TUPPER, Premier nud Secretary of state. Mr. FOSTER, Minwter of Finance. Mr. COSTIGAN, Miiwtcr of Marine Mu\ FinherieH. Mr. U.VGGART, Minister of Railways Mr. IVES, Minister of Trade and Coinnierctt. Mr. DICKEV, MiiiiHter of Justice.

Our editorial columns particular^ ly are original and not made up of clippiugs from other papers without credit, as is the case with some c%~ changes just now in our minds eye. However, there is no energitic or even latent wi^ili to quarrel with the Economist. Like maple syrup, we rsthcr enjoy taking it once a week. The riember For East Qrey Among the important anuonnce- meuts of the past week is the decision of Sir Oliver Mowat to enter the federal arena in order to strongllicn Mr. Laurier's hand in Ontario- This is a new factor for the goveruuient to oontMid with, as, without doubt, Sir Oliver will carry with him a certain amount of extra force. Yut it in doubtful if ho will quite justify the expectation of his frierda in tlii.i direction, becauBe Ontario does not remember him with any extensive gratitude fur his clmnipiunsliiii uf equal lights in this proviuce. In fact he is bettor remembered for his pand- ering to KCctaiiaM demands, llie liquor vote, and his supieme political goueralsliip by the creation of a myriad of subsidized Buporters throughout the length and bcudlh of the country. No, we do not tliink Ontiiiians should sliinit forty brats to the measure for Sir Oliver as their championin the Duniiiiion I'tiiliaiueut. The Shelburuo Economist waxes q^uite eloquent over that flea question, and now pays that James Rnfsell Lowell made use of the lines it quot- ed. Wo thought it was " a local paper in this section " that had used tlicni. Wo fear the Economist writer did not take cur remarks in tho right spirit. \Vt did not wish to injure his fouling, 8 nor yet air our erudition, for wo ciiulidly coiifja.B that tho infoinm- tioii was found in Bartlott'u Quota- tions. It was in a purely boncvolunt fepiiii, that the item was wiilluu. We adiaire " M. I. Cawbur's'' stylo and enjoy his writin;;a. What he moans by Hduicninliin;; The Advance to credit all quotations from other papers is beyond our coniprehensiou* bccKuso we were never guilty of nshig any of his productions in any way so fur a<i wo know ; and moreover no paper ia the country oredita more oonsoiou- ^Hguaiy than do «e, whbu we have From liaturday Niyhl Last Saturday oveninj{ Dr. T. S. Sproulo, M- P. for East Grey, returned to his constituency after having, alt through the recent session of Parliament, aysteinatically and most effectually oppos- ed the passage of the Remedial Rill in the House of Commons His personal views have been well known ever since the Manitoba scluxil question was brought into Federal politics, but when the Government â€" the Conservative Govern niciitâ€" resolved to force Manitoba to do what the hierarchy desired, it was apparently thought that Dr. Sproule Would swallow his personal conviitiuns and ignore the sentimer.ts of his con- stituents in East Grey. It was thought that he would do this, because Di'. Spr(<ule had Uion for years one of the most reliable fighting men in the Con. servative party, and it was thou/ht that alltliat was necessary was to hint to him that the passaije of a Remedial Bdl would bo a good party maniuuvre, there beiiii; more voters iu Quebec than in Maaituba, etc., etc. But Dr. Sproule M. P., proved un- manageable for tho first time. He re- belled atiainst the party discipline which ho had always pri'viously strengthened â€" hu protested on the ground.s that the members of the Cabinet had no author- ity from the Conservative parly to do that which had been undertaken ; that there liad been no caucus of the C >n- servutive members of the House ; that there had b<'Oii no appeal to the country ; that the sixth ses^iion was extraordinary, unnatural, without precedent, and held purposely to pass lo;>iBlation that could only hs passed by forestalling tho elec- tions, and therefore subveistvo of the spirit of representative )2overnment ; and that, (''nnlly, Manitoba should not be coerced, under these or any other con- ditions, into creating Catholic Hlate-aided Huhools. The position taken by the member for East Orey waa flawless. By a display of courai;o and of Bound nasoninu he found himself suddenly a IJL'uro of importance. Ho was subjected to all kuids of petty annoyances and pr;;3:;urc from every aide, and at last Sir Charh'H Tuppcr " road him out of tho party." This highli.'tndcd proceeding' Irft him free to say without reservation what was in his mind, and tlie result was that in one brief session Dr. Sproule made a name for himself as a |iai'liamunt- urian siicli as hu had not built up in long yeara of puity seivico Hi.< persistent and sIviiplesH working comn>iltee n!{ainst the Bill is too '.veil known to noad men tion.
